Backslash at the end of line should add linebreak

[vills]

No linebreaks added in case of backslash at the end of line. For example,

line1 \
line2 \
line3

should be rendered as separate lines within same paragraph (like shift+enter in confluence editor). But it is not.

HTML generated with sphinx from same source have added <br> between lines.

Could you please fix it?

Out of curiosity, are you using reStructuredText, MyST Markdown or some other variant?

[vills]

Sure. I use MyST markdown variant.

A proposed change to address this can be found in executablebooks/MyST-Parser#948.

Oh. I see. Thanks a lot. Your comment in related issue #879 (comment) explains everything ;-)
